Tall Ladies beware...this is bolero length
The jacket is just okay. The material is more Spring/Summer weight than I had imagined. The length is much shorter than the model is wearing it. Not what I was looking for.
Black Military Blazer

Size Worn: 44
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 38C
Unique Design Marred by Cheap Fabric
I was excited to incorporate a little animal print into my work wardrobe this fall, and this dress seemed like such a winner. However, once I received it, I was disappointed by the cheap fabric. It felt like material for Forever 21 rather than a mid-range designer piece. Also, the front neckline slit is a little too revealing to be work appropriate despite the button holding it closed. Overall, not a bad piece. Just not a piece worth anywhere near its retail price.
Leopard Printed Midi Dress
RACHEL ROY COLLECTION
Size Worn: LR
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 38C
Classic silhouette, summery print
This is a great, classic shirt dress. The print is fun with just enough pops of color in the embroidery. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I felt it was a little short waisted for busty girls. I enjoyed wearing it, though.

Summer Essential
Awesome. Wore it to the beach, dressed up for work, and then, for a dinner out. Incredibly versatile. Be warned. If you have a sizable bust (D or more), the buttons might pull. Otherwise, this is a summertime workhorse.
Striped Blake Jumpsuit
HEARTLOOM
Size Worn: LR
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 9"
Bust: 38C
Great silhouette, not so great fit
This would have been a perfect blouse if only the fabric were not pulling in awkward places. I don't think you could avoid the pulling due to the bias cut fabric in the main part of the blouse. The neck closure is also difficult to button/unbutton. Didn't wear this, because it was getting far too warm. However, I might have tried to make this work if the weather was cooler.
